The case for the prosecution was that when the furniture deal. er decided to pay off seven men, his fokis protested and he invit ed them to discuss the matter in a restaurant. The two defen- dants were friends of the fokia, and the complainant was a friend of the dealer.
A quarrel began in the restaur- ant, and was continued in the street, where the two defendants assaulted the complainant. A constable saw Wong Chi-lin strike the complainant with a stool. Arrests were made and the complainant sent to hospital for treatment."

the parents that the child would have to be removed and explained to the occupants of the floor that disinfection would be necessary. A launch and ambulance were nt once requisitioned to remove the child to isolation, but by the time. the ambulance' reached the house. the occupants had fled, taking the infected child and all the furni- ture with them.
"I cannot understand this atti tude," said Dr.
Hope. No damage has ever been done when a house has been disinfected, and if damage were done, compensa- tion would be promptly paid."
